Dell 12 GB 3.5" SAS drive

This Dell 400-ATKR is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive with a 12 GB capacity and a 7200 RPM spindle speed. It uses a SAS interface and is supplied as a bare drive in OEM packaging. The unit is new and designed for hot-pluggable desktop installations.

Suits single-drive desktop upgrades

This drive suits users adding a single 12 GB SAS drive to a compatible desktop chassis with a free 3.5-inch bay and a SAS host adapter. Buyers who need more storage than 12 GB provides should look at larger capacity models. Systems without a SAS controller or an available 3.5-inch slot cannot use this drive.

SAS 6Gb/s interface

The drive connects via a SAS 6Gb/s interface, which is the specification that determines compatibility with the host controller. Verify that your desktop motherboard or add-in card supports this exact interface standard before purchase. The 7200 RPM speed and 3.5-inch form factor are fixed characteristics of this model.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 GB cache on the 400-ATKR need replacement over time?

The 12 GB cache is built into the drive controller and is not a separate user-replaceable part; it lasts for the life of the drive.

What limit appears first when the 7200 RPM SAS drive runs continuously?

Sustained throughput is capped by the 12Gb/s SAS interface before the mechanical platters reach their maximum transfer rate.

How much heat and noise does the 3.5" 7200 RPM drive produce during all-day operation?

Typical enterprise 3.5" 7200 RPM drives run warm and emit audible seek noise; ensure your chassis provides adequate airflow for continuous duty.
